To All Teachers of the Northwest: 


The city of Aberdeen considers itself fortunate at having 
an opportunity to extend this most hearty invitation to you all 
to attend the Summer Quarter of the Nortnern Normal and Industrial 
School, feeling certain as it does, that every day from its opening 
June 7th to its close August 14th will be well worth your while. 


In giving over to study what is perhaps your customary period 
for rest and recreation you will be actuated by a desire to raise 
your standing and your standards as a teacher. Certainly no better 
opportunity can open to you than this coming Summer Session at Aber- 
deen. 


More than this, we believe that you will not only find here the 
ablest faculty ever brought into school service at one time in South 
Dakota, for it numbers many of International as well as National 
reoutation, but that you will also find in and about Aberdeen re- 
creational features and advantages that will afford you a real vacation 
as well, that the ten weeks will be spent pleasantly as well as prof- 
itably and that you will take up your reguiar work in the fall refreshed - 
in mind and body. ne, 


A city of about 17,000, Aberdeen possesses most of the advan- 
tages of a metropolitan eastern city, but has not lost the charm 
and simplicity of the west. Aberdeen has a splendid park system. 
Wylie, the largest is two miles from the city and reached by trolley 
line. It offers opportunities for bathing and boating. The Mun- 
icipal pavilion is located here where dances are conducted under 
the direction of the Park Authorities. The city has. many fine 
churches, hotels, and other public buildings. Six theatres are 
operated. 


Aberdeen maintains a Municipal Band that is recognized as 
a leading musical organization not only of the state but of the 
Northwest, and public concerts are given in the parks almost 
daily. In short we know that you will be glad you came. If the 
following pages do not give the information you desire, address 
either the "Northern Normal & Industrial School", or the "Com- 
mercial club." 


Yours very truly, 
CHAMBER o” COMMERCE Be A LV en COMMERC Ar CLUB.

TEACHING AGAIN BECOMING AN EXALTED PROFESSION 


In the early history of the American nation teaching school was 
looked upon as a most exalted calling. This was largely because the 
teachers of those days had an academic and professional preparation 
superior to their fellows in other walks of life. In recent years the 
United States has gone through a great transition during which teach- 
ing has lost some of its high social and professional rank. Indifferent 
protective legislation, increasing amateurism and resulting low sal- 
aries are largely the cause. 

The war has changed all this. America has come to see that edu- 
cation is the true corner stone of Democracy and that the professional 
teacher is the nation’s real benefactor.

THE PROFESSION OFFERING GREAT OPPORTUNITIES TO PEO- 
PLE WILLING TO INVEST IN THE RIGHT KIND 
OF PREPARATION 


Teaching is in the ascendency and therefore the right kind of 
profession for a young person to choose. It renders a patriotic sery- 
ice; it is highly respected; it keeps its devotees growing, and brings 
them into association with all the world’s ablest and choicest. 

Teaching must not be judged by those who, by means of poor 
preparation, have seen only small things in teaching and have hurt it 
by saying small things about it. 


A GREAT DEMAND FOR ABLE MEN TEACHERS 


Teaching will hereafter offer equal financial and social rewards 
for equal service with law, medicine, and engineering. Advancement 
will be rapid, because the demands for school administrators, prin- 
cipals, etc., are much greater than the supply. Many village superin- 
tendents in South Dakota are getting $3,000 to $3400 this years the 
larger superintendencies range from $4,000 to $5,500; high school 
principalships range from $1,800 to $3,500. Such position as these are 
open to the prepared only. 


STRONG WOMEN TEACHERS AT A PREMIUM 


The demands for women teachers witi professional certificates 
far surpass the available supply. Many rural schools will pay as high

as $150.00 per month with teachers’ cottage thrown in. Grade posi- 
tions range from $1,100 to $2,000, and good high school positions from 
$1,500 to $38,000. 


SOUTH DAKOTA WISELY REQUIRING PROFESSIONAL PREPAR- 
ATION OF ALL NEW TEACHERS 
The new law provides that from and after September 1, 1920, all 
new candidates for certificates must present evidence of having at- 
tended an approved normal school or educational department of an 
approved college or university six or more weeks, depending on the 
kind of certificate desired. 


THE 1920 SUMMER SESSION AT THE NORTHERN NORMAL AND 
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL 


Ten weeks of intensive study, approved by the State Department of 
Public Instruction for twelve weeks’ credit, will be offered at the 1920 
Summer session at the Northern Normal and Industrial School. 


The entire faculty of the school will remain for the summer quar- 
ter and in addition twenty specialists in education have been procured 
from leading colleges and universities and governmental organizations 
outside of South Dakota. 


Students should register for the entire quarter of ten weeks, but 
will be accepted for either half term (June 7 to July 10) or (July 12 to 
August 14), or for as many weeks as they are able to attend.
